To quit or not to quit? That is the question (:

I'm 20 w and smoking daily to help with anxiety and restless leg at night. I'm trying to decide if I should stop before delivery or if I could be one of the lucky ones that smoke until delivery with no testing or problems from CPS. I haven't self reported and I haven't been tested to my knowledge, and dr has never brought it up. I have a low risk pregnancy and everything has been right on track so far. What do you mamas think?

This is just my own, personal opinion....I would stop at least 4 weeks prior to delivery. I wouldn't want my excitement and joy to all of sudden be overshadowed by CPS. I just don't want the chance of it happening.

That's very true, good point. I'm just worried about getting sleep that last month bc a couple hits is the only thing that makes my RLS relax enough to get to sleep. Otherwise I'm up pacing and crying bc my legs jerk around all night and I can't sleep. But I guess maybe at that point I should get used to only a couple hours sleep a night.

I'm 19 weeks and still smoke. I honeslty want to try and quiet but I feel like it just helps out so much cause I still have morning sickness and I get really bad migraines. My ob knows and I'm a high risk pregnancy but he hasn't said anything about it.
